What's It About?

In Princess Fairy Tale Maker, kids can choose from 32 background scenes, almost 200 different stickers, and many colors to create stories. The orientation and size of the stickers can be easily edited. When ready to record the action and soundtrack, kids simply hit the record button. During the recording, kids can move the stickers around to illustrate plot points, but they can no longer draw or alter the stickers. Kids can also color ready-made templates, and save all their creations.

Princess Fairy Tale Maker – by Duck Duck Moose is a great app to encourage kids to get creative. There's not much in terms of instruction, feedback, or prompts about storytelling. Instead, Princess Fairy Tale Maker lets kids explore and just have fun with it. Kids can create some interesting art with atypical fairy tale settings, such as putting a princess in a photo of their own home or on the moon.

The illustrations are charming, and the characters are racially diverse. Though there are lots of choices, the types of characters are a little "girly" with fairies, princesses, ballerinas, and hula girls; it's a princess app, so that's expected. But the process of making your own animated tale is fun for all.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

  • Play along and be a character in the story.

  • Guide your kids as they create the story by asking and prompting about plot elements.

  • Help kids think outside the box and create inventive and atypical fairy tales.
